Indoor Farming: Day 2

For any of you that know me, you know I have a very "black thumb". Up until last year, the longest I had ever kept a house plant alive was around 4 months. I have now succeeded in keeping an indoor plant alive for over a year, but it probably doesn't count because it is part of the cactus family. So with all this in mind, I didn't have high hopes for growing sprouts. But, they are GROWING!

Sorry that I haven't commented lately - I have been keeping up with all the posts - but I felt like I was just flying by the computer for a few minutes at a time! I think that Jonah would love growing sprouts ... maybe you could tell me more about it over the phone so I could dabble in it as well. What a great teaching opportunity! Missed you at church yesterday - hope we can connect in the next couple days!

The finished product was a jar 3/4 the way full of sprout. Since I used a sprout mix, some of the sprouts (radish) were a little spicy for the kids. When I do this in the future I will probably just stick with alfalfa, lentils, or mung bean.
